Also could you tell us how well the robot turns.

Our design is similar. The reason we went with a six wheel, dropped center design, is that most of the time you will be sitting on four wheels (the front or rear wheels are always off the ground) Since your wheels are very close together, you turn easier and faster. You can't do this with only four wheels because you would fall over backward (or forwards)
